There is a profound resonance in a timepiece that serves as a bridge to its own origin story, born at the very heart of Genevan horological excellence. In 1996, the Hommage collection was first unveiled as a poetic tribute to the masters and mentors who shaped the singular vision of Mr. Roger Dubuis.
Today, three decades after that initial spark, the Maison celebrates its thirtieth anniversary by honoring its founder’s enduring legacy with the unveiling of the Hommage La Placide. It is a creation that captures the soul of the past while remaining a beacon of high horology for the modern era.
Presented in a refined 38 mm silhouette of 18K pink gold, this anniversary edition is limited to a mere 28 pieces, ensuring its status as a true collector's rarity. The timepiece embodies the complication most beloved by Mr. Roger Dubuis himself: the Perpetual Calendar, featuring the signature biretrograde display that he co-patented in 1989.
This sophisticated movement offers a rhythmic and expressive way to mark the passage of months and days, serving as a tactile reminder of the technical audacity that founded the Maison. It is a masterpiece of historical significance, designed for those who find the greatest beauty in a story told through mechanical perfection.
